Note: semanage permissive -a dirsrv_t can be used to
make the process type dirsrv_t permissive. SELinux does not
deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC
(SELinux denials) messages are still gener- ated.

BOOLEANS SELinux policy is customizable based on least
access required. dirsrv policy is extremely flexible and has
several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and
run dirsrv with the tightest access possible.

If you want to allow all daemons to write corefiles to
/, you must turn on the allow_daemons_dump_core boolean.
Disabled by default.

setsebool -P allow_daemons_dump_core 1

If you want to allow all daemons to use tcp wrappers,
you must turn on the allow_daemons_use_tcp_wrapper boolean.
Disabled by default.

setsebool -P allow_daemons_use_tcp_wrapper 1

If you want to allow all daemons the ability to
read/write terminals, you must turn on the
allow_daemons_use_tty boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P allow_daemons_use_tty 1

If you want to allow all domains to use other domains
file descriptors, you must turn on the allow_domain_fd_use
boolean. Enabled by default.

setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1

If you want to allow confined applications to run with
kerberos, you must turn on the allow_kerberos boolean.
Enabled by default.

setsebool -P allow_kerberos 1

If you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all
processes, you must turn on the allow_ptrace boolean.
Disabled by default.

setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1

If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must
turn on the allow_ypbind boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P allow_ypbind 1

If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load
modules, you must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules
boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1

If you want to allow all domains to execute in
fips_mode, you must turn on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled
by default.

setsebool -P fips_mode 1

If you want to enable reading of urandom for all
domains, you must turn on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled
by default.

setsebool -P global_ssp 1

If you want to enable support for upstart as the init
program, you must turn on the init_upstart boolean. Enabled
by default.

setsebool -P init_upstart 1

If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd
shared memory, you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean.
Enabled by default.

setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1

MANAGED FILES The SELinux process type dirsrv_t can
manage files labeled with the following file types. The
paths listed are the default paths for these file types.
Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS SELinux requires files to have an extended
attribute to define the file type.

You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to
ls

Policy governs the access confined processes have to
these files. SELinux dirsrv policy is very flexible allowing
users to setup their dirsrv processes in as secure a method
as possible.

EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES

dirsrv policy stores data with multiple different file
context types under the /var/log/dirsrv directory. If you
would like to store the data in a different directory you
can use the semanage command to cre- ate an equivalence
mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the /srv
dirctory you would execute the following command:

SELinux defines the file context types for the dirsrv,
if you wanted to store files with these types in a diffent
paths, you need to execute the semanage command to sepecify
alternate labeling and then use restorecon to put the labels
on disk.

Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the
chcon command. If you want to permanently change the file
context you need to use the semanage fcontext command. This
will modify the SELinux labeling database. You will need to
use restorecon to apply the labels.

COMMANDS semanage fcontext can also be used to
manipulate default file context mappings.

semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate
whether or not a process type is permissive.

semanage module can also be used to
enable/disable/install/remove pol- icy modules.

semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the
booleans

system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to
customize SELinux pol- icy settings.
